UCSF Neuro and Musculoskeletal Imaging

University of California San Francisco Clinical Update (SA-CME)
Stay abreast of the latest developments and trends in neuroradiology and musculoskeletal imaging with this inclusive clinical update.

Stay Current on Rapidly Changing Specialty
UCSF Neuro and Musculoskeletal Imaging is a comprehensive state-of-the-art update on clinically relevant topics in neuroradiology and musculoskeletal imaging. This in-depth CME course includes case-based lectures on topics like skeletal trauma, shoulder instability, brain tumor pitfalls, hydrocephalus, staging cervical nodes, and more. It will help you to better:

Revamp imaging protocols for brain, head & neck, spine, nerve and musculoskeletal imaging
Understand the parameters of MR arthrographic technique and interpretation of findings
Develop strategies to create short brain, spine and neck differentials
Implement newer MR sequences like 3D volumetric imaging and metal suppression techniques
Understand advances in stroke management and its effect on imaging
Outline strategies to evaluate common and uncommon abnormalities in the neck and spine
